Chapter 34 Conversation with Legend

Connor and Nick came to the next room and sat on the high-backed sofa.

"Connor, how did you find out about the jade plate? Can you tell me if it's convenient? Oh... you can just call me Nick. If you live to my age, I would like to eliminate some of the effects of age. What do you think? ?Haha" Nick said after taking a sip of coffee.

"Ha...Okay, Nick, as you wish," Connor said cheerfully: "About the jade tablet, I saw it in a notebook of Lord Ravenclaw, and I excerpted a few sentences from it, There are also some conjectures and a small amount of research information, but they don’t seem to be of any real use, but those information reminded me of you, the owner of the Magic Stone."

"So that's it. I saw those few sentences in the letter. If it's as described in the description, it's something even more remarkable than the Book of Abraham." Nick continued:

"As everyone knows, I had a revelation and a book from which the Philosopher's Stone was made. But what people don't know is that I was still young at the time, and I tried several times after that, but they all failed. Oh, hey, people’s hearts are always greedy.”

"Later I discovered that no matter how many times I tried, I would fail, because "God" only allowed me to have one magic stone. This seemed to involve more advanced rules, leaving me powerless. I had no choice but to continue studying those alchemies, and this achieved Me now."

"And the magic stone is not perfect. It can indeed turn stones into gold and make elixirs of immortality, but this only maximizes and optimizes your original life span. Real immortality should be healthy and young, not As I am now, I am dying.”

Nick spoke with an expression of recollection, and then went on to talk about some knowledge of alchemy. Although Connor could not understand it, it did not prevent him from using the rental house to record it. Then he could summarize Nick's alchemy notes.

"Sorry, people always unconsciously recall the past when they get old! Let's continue talking about the Book of Abraham. In fact, there was a sentence on the last page of that book, which I saw when I first read it, but it disappeared after that. Gone. The sentence is: Salute Jade, may God forgive my sins!”

"Salute to the jadeite, may God forgive my sins? Did Abraham copy it from the jadeite tablet?" Connor asked.

"That's what I guessed. At that time, I didn't know what the jadeite represented. Later, by chance, I learned about the jadeite plate, and I remembered that sentence, which should be the meaning. I'm sorry, Connor, I can't give it to you. Looking at the Book of Abraham, the God who gave me the revelation would punish me if I did that.”

For about an hour after that, Connor and Nick discussed various speculations about the jade slab. Nick was indeed an immortal man and knew a lot of secret information and events, which seemed to confirm the existence of this slab.

It wasn't until Connor saw that Nick was a little tired that the two ended their discussion, agreed to write letters and return to the principal's office.Professor Dumbledore was the only one left in the office. Nick said a few words to him before saying goodbye to the professor and Connor and leaving.

"Connor, how was your chat with Nick?"

"Great chat, Professor, Nick is a wise and knowledgeable man and I learned a lot of useful things from chatting with him," Connor said

"He will be very happy to hear that. By the way, is the diary still there?" Professor Dumbledore's eyes were intelligent.

"The previous diary no longer exists, Professor. I used the basilisk's tooth to poke a hole in the previous diary. I believe it has no effect on Voldemort. I can guarantee this." Connor replied

"Well, I still say the same thing, if you have anything you want to tell me, come to me at any time!"

Dumbledore could see that Connor was telling the truth and that Connor was hiding something, but who didn't have a secret of their own?As long as it didn't endanger the safety of the school and students, he couldn't say anything, so he had no choice but to say this.

In a sense, Voldemort's evil diary no longer exists. It has turned into soil to nourish the growth of a new soul, and it does not function as a Horcrux for Voldemort.

"Then, let's talk about the next thing." Dumbledore's words surprised Connor. He couldn't think of anything else worth talking to the principal about.

"Through that diary, I discovered some things that may have serious consequences. I just consulted Nick. He has rich experience in alchemy and confirmed the possibility of this matter."

"So I asked Professor Snape to do some research, which also led to a problem. Professor Snape will have no more time to teach potions courses for the first to fourth years. He recommended you to me. "

"As far as I know, Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick have also proven your excellence, so teaching the potions class for the first to fourth grade should not have an impact on you. Of course, this depends on your own wishes. Connor, what do you think?"

Connor was very surprised. He didn't expect that Professor Snape would recommend him to be a substitute teacher. Although he believed that with his potion skills, it would not be a problem to teach the first to fourth years, but it didn't seem that he had to choose himself.

"Uh, professor, why me? Why don't you look for me outside the school?"

"That's right. Asking Professor Snape to do the investigation was already unplanned. I don't want to expose some of Snape's actions because of the temporary recruitment of a Potions Professor."

"In addition, you have graduated from third grade, and your potion skills are even better than some so-called potions experts, so teaching potions classes from first to fourth grade will definitely not be difficult for you. Therefore, Professor Snape and After discussion, I chose you!" Professor Dumbledore explained.

"So that's it..." Connor heard this and lowered his head to think. Dumbledore did not urge him, but drank tea and waited patiently.

Connor believes that the factor to be considered in this matter is not teaching. Anyway, his level is sufficient and his time is no problem. He mainly studies and practices in the rental house, and his teaching work during the day will not be affected at all.

But he thought of another thing. If Professor Dumbledore agrees to this matter, not only can it solve the problem of the Potions Distinguished Professor, but for Connor, it will also be a thing that will allow him to do something in the next few years. My school life is more free.

After thinking about this, Connor raised his head and looked at Dumbledore and said:

"Professor, I have some ideas that I would like to discuss with you. If possible, I believe that not only can we legitimately solve the trust problem of specially appointed professors, but we can also set a better role model for students in the school!"

As he spoke, Connor told Dumbledore his thoughts in detail, and then the two discussed the feasibility of the matter.Dumbledore thought that if Connor could do what he said, it would be a good idea, and the professor would take care of it later.
